Fashion Designer and Chef

 

Virgilio Martinez- I am fascinated by how Virgilio approaches food because often you don't connect being outside and dirty with food. I think it's interesting how he has pulled the nature into his food. I think his creativity comes from what he sees more than how it tastes in the end. 

Grant Achatz- Grant has an abstract view on food and what he does. I get a sense he never wants to be "done" making types of food. He has a wide variety of things that inspire him. It seems like he is more of a team worker than Virgilio and enjoys having a vast staff to help him come up with new ideas. I also get the sense his food tastes better because its less of a sculpture. I think he takes a little less time to make the food look perfect.

Thom Browne- Thom has the most unique style I have ever seen. I think his inspiration comes from the finished product. It seems like he doesn't care for the sketching part that much. I think he also is inspired to create a unisex clothing line.

"Silent Walk" Reflection

Image
From Part A I chose two photos that represent the song "Vianne Sets Up Shop" from the film "Chocolat". It is by Rachel Portman. The song is bouncy and happy. I used it to represent yellow. https://open.spotify.com/track/2vPalVURlUvEwv4xsLGbEM?si=e7dc7f294cac4af5 I choose this image because the bottom cloud in the middle looks like a person dancing sort of like a freestyle flow dance. I decided to name this one The Dancer. I choose this image because the sun makes it look like a person with their hands extended. This gives me a happy welcoming vibe. I named this one The Hugger. The next song I choose was "Where is my Mind" by Javi Lobe. I used it to represent a calm feeling. When walking to this song I found more down to earth in a sense shapes. They were more mellow. In this image I see a heart. It could also look like a person making that sort of heart shape. I named it Heart Blob. In this image I saw a person laying down with their legs and arms out inf...

Inspirational Picture/Quote

Image
               I chose this image and quote because it represents something I love. The picture is of my favorite NHL (National Hockey League) player, Sidney Crosby. He plays for the Penguins a team that plays out of Pittsburgh. Ever since I started watching hockey Sidney Crosby was my inspiration. I find this quote relatable because I am very much of a perfectionist it makes it hard for me to just relax and enjoy experiences. This quote talks about letting yourself appreciate things instead of always being uptight. I think this is definitely something I can learn from. Overall, I choose this quote because of my ability to relate to it and my liking for Sidney Crosby.
